Abstract
The formulation of a Poolco model suitable for power system planning is presented. The model involves only slight enhancement to existing conventional power system software and directly enables the calculation of spot prices and a bid-based dispatch. Included is a method for decomposing spot prices to reveal components caused by system congestion. An example illustrates how financial hedges that are traded in the Poolco scenario will affect system planning decisions
